Hello everyone,
So I just finished seasoning my Searzall with a TS8000 and a 16.04 oz green propane tank. I guess it's too late but is there a specific amount of gas that is recommended during the seasoning process? From directly closing the valve, I probably turned the dial about half way from all the way open. I started the process and about a minute in I noticed that there was a lot of excess fire coming up the sides of the Searzall. I let go of the gas for a second to adjust the valve and the there was actually a fire on the adapter and sleeve. Something was burning even though the gas was completely off and I let go of the ignition, I blew it out with my breath. Is that normal? Has that happened to anyone else?
The Searzall is nice and blued but I couldn't help but notice that my screen is SLIGHTLY warped. Should the screens be completely flat? Is it warped because my fire during the seasoning process was too hot?
It is just the very middle of the screen, probably the size of a dime, it protrudes out ever so slightly from the rest of the screen. So it looks like a dime sized mosquito bite that comes up one millimeter.
Also what would it look like if you burned/damaged your screen? There is a slight discoloration in the middle of the screen where it comes up a teeny bit. It looks brownish? I fear I may have damaged my screen somehow during the seasoning process. If you guys could share similar things or have some advice that would be great!
